Lesson 2 - Bitumen Flashcards
used to perform reliable analysis on
bituminous mixture utilizing non-
flammable, non-explosion solvents,
for quantitative determination of
binder or bitumen contained in
pavement samples and hot mixed
mixture.
Automatic binder extraction unit
use for softening bitumen before
performing a range of test including
ductility, flash point, penetration , loss on heating.
Air bath
use for asphalt content determination in bituminous concrete.
Reflux extractor
it can extrude Marshall, CBR, and
Standard and Modified Proctor
specimen.
Universal extruder
this apparatus is a general purpose
testing machine developed to carry
out a range of tests on asphalt.
Asphalt testing system
allows asphalt to be tested for its
ability to simulate repeated axial
loading conditions, replicating traffic
conditions.
Universal testing system
is a stand-alone system for fatigue life testing of asphalt beams subjected to repeated flexural bending, giving a measure of maximum tensile strength, maximum tensile strain and flexural
stiffness
Fatigue tester of asphalt beams
used to determine the consistency of a bituminous sampler under fixed
conditions of load, time and
temperature.
Penetrometer
used to determine the breaking point of semisolid and solid bitumen.
Fraas apparatus
used to determine the viscosity of
cut-back bitumen and road oil.
Viscometer
used to determine the mechanical
and physical properties of bituminous mixtures.
Duriez test set
use in determining viscosity of cut-
back bitumen and road oil
Tar viscometer
